Construction Equipment and Supply
Composed of three vertical industries, the construction equipment and supply group supports contractors with the materials and tools they use in residential and commercial construction. Another major segment of this industry’s products winds up in retail outlets such as Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Ace Hardware.
Building Materials Supply
Dependent on whether the construction is residential or commercial, the products in this vertical vary dramatically. For example, the structural materials of doors and windows used in commercial structures tend to be metal as opposed to those used in residential which are usually blended wood and metal.
This industry is very diverse, including:
- Brick, stone, and tile
- Concrete
- Lumber
- Mobile homes
- Paints, adhesives, and sealants
- Windows and doors
Sage MAS 90, MAS 200, and MAS 500 distribution and manufacturing are strong solutions for suppliers who support all types of construction.
Electrical, Plumbing, and HVAC Supply
This industry is made up suppliers who support the major subcontracting segments—electricians; plumbers; and Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning specialist.
The products produced and distributed in this vertical include:
- Copper, iron, and plastic plumbing fixtures
- Electrical switches and wiring devices
- Electrical wire and conduit
- Environmental controls
- Plumbing and heating valves, ductwork, refrigeration and heating equipment
- Transformers; switchgear and switchboards
The high volume of SKU (stock-keeping units) numbers, and inventory controls issues in this industry can easily be mastered with Sage MAS 90, MAS 200, and MAS 500.
Tools & Hardware
This industry includes the tools and hardware used in both commercial and residential construction such as:
- Blow torches
- Fasteners—nails, bolts, washers, and screws
- Hammers and screwdrivers
- Power driven tools
Sage MAS 90, MAS 200, and MAS 500 distribution and manufacturing provides superb performance whether the need is tracking serial numbers on power tools, or the EDI (electronic data interchange) required when receiving orders from the major retailers through our extended solutions.
